RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 Novel valproate half-sandwich rhodium and iridium conjugates to fight against multidrug-resistant Gram-positive bacteria A1 Marco, Alicia A1 Vigueras, Gloria A1 Busto Vázquez, Natalia A1 Cutillas, Natalia A1 Bautista, Delia A1 Ruiz, José K1 Química inorgánica K1 Chemistry Inorganic AB New valproate Ir(III) and Rh(III) half-sandwich conjugates containing a C,N-phenylbenzimidazole chelated ligand have been synthesized and characterized. The valproic acid conjugation to organometallic fragments seems to switch on the antibacterial activity of the complexes towards Enterococcus faecium and Staphylococcus aureus Gram-positive bacteria.
